You know, it does hurt when even supportive, well meaning friends do not take care with their words. We MUST ALL learn to speak with compassion and tenderness as we counsel with one another. Most especially when we recognize their pain. However, we must not receive uncaring or hurtful comments without first considering “their ” troubled circumstances and/or secondly, refusing to incorporate that comment or remark into our protected space. As hard as it may be, we have the option to reject such by consciously setting up boundaries. That REQUIRES PRACTICE, but can bring peace within ourselves and peace among our friends. (Not to mention, you can always find love and grace with Daddy)
So very true…not easy, but true. Love you Dad!
